Parameters

The file path or URL to stat. Note that in the case of a URL, it must be a :// delimited
URL. Other URL forms are not supported.

flags

Holds additional flags set by the streams API. It can hold one or more
of the following values OR'd together.

Flag

Description

STREAM_URL_STAT_LINK

For resources with the ability to link to other resource
(such as an HTTP Location: forward, or a filesystem
symlink). This flag specified that only information
about the link itself should be returned, not the
resource pointed to by the link. This flag is set in
response to calls to lstat(),
is_link(), or filetype().

STREAM_URL_STAT_QUIET

If this flag is set, your wrapper should not raise any
errors. If this flag is not set, you are responsible for
reporting errors using the trigger_error()
function during stating of the path.

Return Values

Should return as many elements as stat() does.
Unknown or unavailable values should be set to a rational value
(usually 0).

Errors/Exceptions

Emits
E_WARNING if call to this method fails
(i.e. not implemented).

Notes

Note:

The
streamWrapper::$context
property is updated if a valid context is passed to the caller function.
